@Nyk0n if you have some time, could you make a couple icons for #Carbon ?

My 2024.9 update is out, and swiping is back on the now-playing screen!

Swipe between the artwork page and the new chapters/info combo page. It fits WAY more info on screen than the old app, and it feels so good!

Also:
- Swipe left to download an episode
- New iOS 18 dark and color-tinted icons
- Download All Episodes option in playlist menu
- Fixed Episode Limit enforcement

The continuous-play fix is now live in the App Store!

(Nerd explanation: streaming required handling of more “failed” playback states. In some cases, the MP3 decoder could send a “failed” status right after playback reached the end of a file, which could’ve caused a race condition to trigger the failure handling [stop] while it was processing the end-of-file event. The fix was to eliminate the race, and for bonus resilience, also ignore failure messages after receiving an end-of-file message.)

Version 2024.8.2 is now live in the App Store:

STREAMING IS BACK!

Also in this update:
- Smart Speed now displays its current speed
- Podcasts can now have different sort order for Unplayed and All modes
- Other minor fixes

In today's update (2024.8.1):

- Manage Storage
- Bug fixes, including 24-hour-auto-delete mode
- Seek back/forward buttons on the miniplayer

And by popular demand, the third button on the bottom of now-playing is now the Sleep Timer! (Sleep-timer custom intervals are also better now.)

The "i" button is now in the upper-right. (Tapping the artwork also still brings up info mode.)

I hear your feedback and am experimenting with other options for mode-switching the playback screen. Stay tuned.

Update 2024.8 is now in the App Store!

Fixes:
- A bug that sometimes reset episode order in playlists
- A bug that could lose playback progress
- Launching on visionOS
- Siri suggestions for playback
- Siri support for playlists and podcasts by name, e.g. "Play my Queue playlist on Overcast" (now works from HomePods, too)

@overcastfm delete episode is not working correctly (maybe something to do with storage management not bring implemented?), “smart speed has saved you” isn’t incrementing, and sometimes the Lock Screen player has the wrong artwork from another pod. Great work overall and looking forward to updates. Thanks @marcoarment !
